Sangiovese planted in 1998 on fluvial terraces 300 m above sea level, south-west exposure. Solid, almost claret-like complexity. Many layers and really savoury. Lots of tanginess. Very long. (JR)

The 2019 Chianti Classico Gran Selezione CeniPrimo is incredible in its undulating aromatics of ripe yet pure cherry liqueur, delicate baking spice, and wooded earth. There is a luxurious sheen without feeling oaky, and it complements the wine in all the right ways. The palate is medium-bodied and refined, with fine tannins and an airy feel. It doesn’t have a lot of mid-palate weight, but it is long through the palate, with a gorgeous soft mineral texture and lingering perfume. Drink 2024-2038.
